Hey Hey All! Last weekend will be a hard act to follow J (note the sun, climbing, bbq, and decidedly awesome party) but here’s what’s in the works this week.
Meeting: this week's meeting has lots planned, so dont miss out! A brief run-through of the website for those of us technically challenged, some practise with cool equipment (from our newly organized gear shed!) and information on this week's club trip as well as upcoming and holiday events.
Tramping: Bushcraft is this weekend! This is a great tramp where we wander the beautiful Tararuas while learning all sorts of fun and useful skills such as navigating (i.e. away from a pot of bowl-bending vegetarian food), river-crossing (i.e. what to do when swing bridges get boring) and general safety practices (like how to avoid crazy trip leaders). This year should be especially great as there are rumors that the easter bunny has taken up residence somewhere around otaki forks. Come along to the Tuesday meeting for more information and to sign up or see BUSHCRAFT, or if unable to come, e-mail the trip leader.
Climbing: Despite appearances, the tramping club does not encourage people to drop out of uni or work to become a full-time rock-head. Those ropes are expensive.
Tuesday night bouldering in the rec center long-room, 5:30 till 7.
Wednesday night climbing at Fergs, from 5:00.
Thursday night canyoning in the hutt, contact our climbing officer for more details.
Enjoy! And remember to write up a trip report if you went to rockcraft or the party, bribes to be had at tuesday's meeting! Pictures would also be great- throw them up on the website if you're able.
